Lee Spangler has just completed the Brazil portion of his round-the-world Amizade experience. He chronicled life and challenges in and around the Amazonian community where Amizade works, his trip through the jungle, and Amizade's ongoing efforts with volunteers and community members there in Santarem.
A few photos linked from Lee's blog appear below.

And below, photos from the jungle, the nearby rivers, the city, and local food!
